CITY OF CALEXICO INVESTMENT POLICY
For Fiscal Year 2022-23
I. INTRODUCTION
Authority to manage the City of Calexico's investment program is derived from Chapter

2.14 of the City's Municipal Code. Among the specific responsibilities vested with the Finance Director/City Treasurer are: responsibility for the investment program; management of all transactions undertaken for investments; oversight of a system of internal controls to regulate the activities of all others who may be delegated to assist or participate in the program from time-to-time. The Finance Director/City Treasurer shall establish investment policy procedures for the investment program consistent with this policy. The Finance Director/City Treasurer is responsible for the investment of bond proceeds whether held by the City or with fiscal agents. All of the aforementioned activities are subject to the City Manager's oversight and approval in his/her role as the City's chief executive.

It is the policy of the City of Calexico to invest public funds ina manner which will provide the highest investment return with the maximum security while meeting the daily cash flow demands of the City and conforming to all state and local statutes governing the investment of public funds.

Il. SCOPE
This investment policy applies to all financial assets of the City. These funds are accounted for inthe City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) and include:

General Fund
Special Revenue Funds
Debt Service Funds
Capital Project Funds
Enterprise Funds
Fiduciary Funds
This investment policy does not apply to Bond Proceeds or Deferred Compensation Funds if they fall under specific language in California Government Code Section 5922(d).

This code section authorizes bond, certificates of participation notes and other debt issue proceeds to be invested in accordance with the related offering documentation. Likewise, Deferred Compensation Plans are covered elsewhere under California Government Code (CGC).

A-3
I. PRUDENT PERSON RULE
Investments shall be made with judgment and care under circumstances then in effect which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived.

The standard of "Prudence" to be used by investment officials shall be the "prudent person" and/or "prudent investor" standard and shall be applied inthe context of managing an overall portfolio. Investment officers acting in accordance with written procedures and the investment policy and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security's credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely manner and appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments.

IV. OBJECTIVES
There are three major objectives in the City's investment policy. They are:

1. Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. The investments shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective, the City will diversify its investments by investing funds among a variety of securities offering independence of returns and financial institutions.

2. Liquidity: The City's investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet all operating requirements which might be reasonably anticipated.

3. Yield on Investments: The City's investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a benchmark rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with the City's investment risk constraints and the cash flow characteristics of the portfolio.

DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY
Authority from state law to manage the City's investment program is derived from CGC Section 53646. Management responsibility for the investment program is hereby delegated to the Treasurer who shall be responsible for all transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of controls to regulate the activities of subordinate officials, and their procedures inthe absence of the Treasurer.

The City Treasurer shall establish written investment policies and procedures for the operation of the investment program consistent with this policy. The procedures should include reference to: safekeeping, Public Securities Agreements, repurchase agreements, wire transfer agreements, banking service contracts and collateral/depository agreements.

Such procedures shall include explicit delegation of authority to persons responsible for investment transactions. No person may engage in an investment transaction except as provided under the terms of this policy and the procedures established by the City A-4
VI. ETHICS AND CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or which would impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. Employees and investment officials shall disclose to the City Manager any material financial interests in financial institutions that conduct business within their jurisdiction, and they shall further disclose any large personal financial/investment positions that could be related to the performance of the City. All the City's employees who participate in the investment process are required by the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) to complete and file a Form 700 annually.

VII. AUTHORIZED FINANCIAL DEALERS AND INSTITUTIONS
The Finance Director/City Treasurer will maintain a list of financial institutions authorized to provide investment services. In addition, a list will also be maintained for approval of security broker/dealers selected by Finance Director/City Treasurer and approved by the City Council for their credit worthiness that are authorized to provide investment services in the State of California. These may include "primary" dealers or regional dealers that qualify under the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15C3-1 (uniform net capital rule). No public deposit shall be made except in a qualified public depository as established by state laws. All financial institutions and broker/dealers who desire to become qualified bidders for investment transactions must supply the Finance Director/City Treasurer with the following: audited financial statements, proof of National Association of Security Dealers certification, trading resolution, proof of state registration, completed broker/dealer questionnaire, certification of having read City's investment policy and depository contracts.

An annual review of financial condition and registration of qualified bidders will be conducted by the Finance Director/City Treasurer. A current audited financial statement is required to be on file for each financial institution and broker/dealer inwhich the City invests.

VIlI. AUTHORIZED AND SUITABLE INVESTMENTS
The City is empowered by statute to invest in securities and instruments as described in Figure 1.

Under Provisions of CGC Section 53601.6 the City shall not invest any funds covered by this Investment Policy in inverse floaters, range notes, interest-only strips derived from mortgage pools or any investment that may result in a zero interest accrual if held to maturity. Ălso, the City shall not invest in Reverse Repurchased Agreements and Mortgage Pass-Through Securities.

A-5
IX. INVESTMENT POOLS/MUTUAL FUNDS
A thorough investigation of the pool/funds is required prior to investing, and on a continual basis. There shall be a questionnaire developed which will answer the following general questions:
• A description of eligible investment securities, and a written statement of investment policy and objectives.
• A description of interest calculations and how it is distributed, and how gains and losses are treated.
• A description of how the securities are safeguarded (including the settlement processes), and how often the securities are priced and the program audited. • A description of who may invest inthe program, how often, and what size deposit and withdrawal are allowed.
• A schedule for receiving statements and portfolio listings. • Are reserves, retained earnings, etc. utilized by the pool/fund? A fee schedule, and when and how is it assessed.
• Is the pool/fund eligible for bond proceeds and/or will it accept such proceeds? X. COLLATERALIZATION
Collateralization will be required on two types of investments: certificates of deposit and sweep checking accounts. Inorder to anticipate market changes and provide a level of security for all funds, the collateralization level will be 110% of market value of principal and accrued interest.

The City chooses to limit collateral to the following: certificates of deposit and sweep checking accounts held by an independent third party with whom the entity has a current custodial agreement. A clearly marked evidence of ownership (safekeeping receipt) must be supplied to the entity and retained. The right of collateral substitution is granted.

XI. SAFEKEEPING AND CUSTODY
All security transactions entered into by the City shall be conducted on a delivery- versus payment (DVP) basis. Securities will be held by a third party custodian designated by the Treasurer and evidenced by safekeeping receipts.

XII. DIVERSIFICATION
The City will diversify its investments by security type and institution. With the exception of U.S. Treasury securities and authorized pools, no more than 50 percent of the City's total investment portfolio will be invested in a single security type or with a single financial institution. See Figure 1 and the accompanying notes for further information.

XIII. MAXIMUM MATURITIES
A-6
To the extent possible, the City will attempt to match its investments with anticipated cash flow requirements. Unless matched to a specific cash flow and/or authorized by the City Council, the City will not directly invest in securities maturing more than five years from the date of purchase.

CD maturities will normally not exceed two years. U.S. Government or Agency securities will not exceed five years. At least 50 percent of the idle funds will be placed in investments which can be liquidated for at least face value in the event of an emergency.

The City uses a combination of LAIF and sweep accounts for its idle funds to ensure this requirement is met.

XIV. INTERNAL CONTROL
The Treasurer shall establish an annual process of independent review by an external auditor.

This review will provide internal control by assuring compliance with policies and procedures.

XV. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of obtaining a rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with the investment risk constraints and the cash flow needs.

XVI. REPORTING
In accordance with CGC Section 53646 (8(1), the City Treasurer shall submit to each member of the City Council a quarterly investment report. The report shall include a complete description of the portfolio, the type of investments, the issuers, maturity dates, par values and the current market values of each component of the portfolio, including funds managed for the City of Calexico by third party contract managers. The report will also include the source of the portfolio valuation. As specified in CGC 53646 (e), if all funds are placed in LAIF, FDIC insured accounts and/or in a county investment pool, the foregoing report elements may be replaced by copies of the latest statements from such institutions. The report must also include a certification that (1) all investment actions executed since the last report have been made in full compliance with the investment policy, and, (2) the City of Calexico will meet its expenditure obligations for the next six months.

A staff investment committee consisting of the City Manager and the Treasurer will convene at least once a year to review the investment program. Such review shall examine both policy and administrative procedures in the program for possible revision. This meeting will normally occur in May.

3. Strategy Review: The Staff investment committee will review interest rate trends and resultant desirable investment maturity goals consistent with the City's needs for safety and liquidity in its investment program.

XVII. INVESTMENT POLICY ADOPTION
A-7
The City's investment policy shall be adopted by resolution of the City's legislative authority.

Per Government code, the policy shall be reviewed annually by the City Council and any modifications made thereto must be approved by the City Council.
